Brno does not agree with the principles of spatial development prepared by the region

The region, according to Ander, is postponing the solution to a long-standing problem with the proposed principles of territorial development. This concerns the route of the new road I/43, which, according to the Policy of Territorial Development of the Czech Republic, is supposed to connect the D1 motorway with the planned motorway Olomouc - Hradec Králové. It is not yet clear where the new four-lane road will lead from the D1 motorway to Lysice. "Unfortunately, we have not yet found a way to satisfactorily meet Brno's fundamental comment, which is not to postpone the solution of the backbone road network in the Brno agglomeration for several years," the deputy mayor stated.

Transit traffic from the north to the south to the D1 motorway is currently routed through Brno and also through the centers of many municipalities located along the first-class road I/43. The route of the new four-lane first-class road will not be known before 2019 if the region's process is maintained. The region wants to first commission a study that will assess the appropriate routing of this communication and its associated traffic constructions. Its results are to be incorporated into the update of the territorial plan. Only then will it be possible to start designing the new roads.

"Any postponement of the decision is unacceptable for Brno and for the neighboring municipalities. It indefinitely postpones the solution to the unsustainable illegal state of air pollution in several municipalities and city districts," Ander wrote to Tesařík. Tesařík claims that Ander is interested in transit traffic, while not addressing cars heading to Brno as a destination. "That is 85 percent of all traffic, for which Brno is unprepared, furthermore in the form of a territorial plan from 1994," Tesařík stated. According to him, the city should cooperate with the region to create its new territorial plan and not rely on the region to solve traffic for Brno. According to Tesařík, it is Ander who blocks the city's future development.

The region has repeated in recent months that it does not have enough data to decide on the designation of corridors for planned roads, even though it has been preparing the territorial plan for four electoral terms. A document issued in 2012 was annulled by the Supreme Administrative Court because the region insufficiently assessed the impacts of the planned transport network on the environment.
